Schlacht um Algier (1966)
Mit beeindruckender Glaubwürdigkeit vergegenwärtigt der Film die Schlüsselmomente des algerischen Kampfes um Unabhängigkeit von der französischen Besatzung in den 1950er Jahren. Als die Gewalt auf beiden Seiten eskaliert, werden Soldaten von Kindern erschossen, zünden Frauen Bomben in Cafés, und französische Soldaten bedienen sich der Folter, um den Willen der Aufständischen zu brechen. Im dokumentarischen Stil in den Straßen von Algier gedreht, ist der Film eine Studie moderner Kriegsführung – mit terroristischen Attacken und den brutalen Techniken ihrer Bekämpfung.
